I had already tried disconnecting the PRAM battery before sticking the new inverter in. And I did not disconnect the PRAM battery in the process of installing the new inverter. The only thing that has changed is the inverter.
I agree that it sounds like a software issue. Or perhaps a firmware issue. But changing the inverter fixed it (I hope) so I suppose all's well that ends well. It's still baffling though. As I said, I used a Lombard inverter and the backlight stayed on as well. I swear the screen isn't as bright as it was before. But that could be my imagination. After all, laptop displays do darken over time. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Books, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
